Strangely, the raincoat itself did not undulate at all.

He is no longer part of the rules, but the rules have become part of him.

"It's so noisy and incessant... It's just a frog that can prey on all the insects in the well, yet it thinks it's all-knowing and all-powerful?" Li Yili raised her head, pressed her right hand on her neck, and twisted it from side to side.

"Shut up—" Augusit said angrily to Li Yili, his outstretched limbs displaying a series of wide-open mouths.

Flames, thunder, storms, and poisonous fog rained down on Li Yili.

"I am an all-knowing and all-powerful Lord! I have spent a full thirty years!"

"boom--"

A terrifying explosion shot into the sky, but a strange yellow figure had already appeared behind Augusert.

"Your omniscience and omnipotence are limited to the jar of Theresa Prison."

Li Yili tilted her head back, showing no intention of launching an attack.

"Don't you know this better than anyone else? That's why you've been repeatedly emphasizing your omnipotence for thirty years?"

"You've been running away from a problem you can't solve for thirty years, you must be exhausted."

"Shut up--"

Countless pale arms emerged from Augusite's gradually mutated body, weaving together to form a gigantic arm that slammed down towards Li Yili.

"Look—this body that has gathered all my powers! I am omnipotent!"

"If you only choose problems you can solve, then of course you're omnipotent. But I have some good news for you: this world..."

Li Yili raised her hand and waved it, easily shattering the huge arm with a jagged black liquid.

"It's just an ecosphere built by humans."

"And you... are the worst of the worst."

Humans do not need

"A creature like you."

"What the hell are you…" Augusit exclaimed in shock and anger, raising his arms to slam them down at Li Yili, "What are you…?"

"The King in Yellow".

Chapter Sixty-Two: I Will Carry You Along This Road of Theresa

What is omniscience and omnipotence?

Knowing everything, being able to do everything?

It's just a frog that's proud of its ignorance, and an all-knowing and all-powerful frog that's confined to a well and won't change in the slightest isn't scary.

Humanity, like a speck of dust facing the vast and unknown universe, is truly terrifying.

The head with a face covered in tentacles landed heavily on the ground. Before he could turn his head, a foot stomped heavily on the back of his head, pressing his face firmly to the ground.

Although it is only omniscience and omnipotence within a limited scope, it is still omniscience and omnipotence. It can still do things within the scope of its cognition very well. For example, even if only one head is left, it will not die.

"Lord...I want to repent."

Li Yili tucked her hands into the sleeves of her yellow raincoat and looked up at the sky.

“That day I saw it on the sea, a huge biological research base. There wasn’t a single human in it, but the whole base was operating normally. That… was probably the most primitive form of the temple you mentioned.”

"No, stop talking..." August wailed, twisting his head.

Information from a completely unknown world is gradually tearing apart his narrow world and destroying his spirit. His omniscience and omnipotence are turning into the simple ability to do what he knows.

"Actually, I threw up when I saw that biological research base. I threw up a lot."

“I’m not a researcher, but I still saw at a glance the purpose of this base, no, the original state of the temple,” Li Yili exhaled a long breath, “for measurement and reconstruction.”

"The Primal Temple periodically releases calculated amounts of [Legacy] into the ocean's food chain, gradually modifying, no... gradually restoring the food chain that once existed in some corner of the universe. And the gradually restored ocean food chain will affect the [residents] in coastal areas. Ha... it's really complicated to explain, so to put it simply..."

Li Yili gently rubbed the back of Augusite's head with her foot.

"Just like you were conducting experiments in a small place like Teresa Prison, humanity also prepared a secluded place to conduct mutation experiments similar to yours, but far more sophisticated. That small place is what we call the world."

"Stop talking—I don't want to hear anything!"

"Although we don't know the ultimate goal of this experiment, the experiment, which runs on a 2012 cycle, has not gone smoothly and has failed many times. We had no choice but to destroy it and start over. As for the method of destruction, it is probably the phenomenon you call the Omega-level heritage."

Li Yili grinned.

"To avoid repeating the same mistakes and to refine the experimental details to make the process smoother, the Primal Temple will collect all experimental life forms within its range and make corresponding improvements so that subsequent experimental life forms can naturally avoid the previous wrong directions."

"Of course... simple guidance is not enough."

Li Yili raised his right hand, his five fingers slightly bent, and a surging black viscous liquid seeped from between his fingers.

"Just like training a dog requires not only good food, but also a certain amount of discipline to control certain behaviors, you can hear that sound, right?"

"No, please stop talking!"

The narrow well was ruthlessly dug out by the excavator. Augusert, like a frog startled by the vast world, cried out in despair, while Li Yili whistled as she drove the excavator.

"Lord...can you forgive us humans for what we have done to you?"

Li Yili slowly lowered his head, and the shadow gradually obscured his face, leaving only a pale, crescent-shaped smile.

"Although, in every sense, we are your masters."

With a crisp cracking sound, twisted chunks of flesh gushed out from the center of Augus's head, and all sorts of bizarre limbs poured out from it, the tide of flesh shooting into the sky like an oil well that had been dug open.

Augus had a mental breakdown; his humanity was completely unable to maintain its own form, and he naturally turned into something resembling pollutants.

Of course, it is not appropriate to describe it as pollutants. Just as it is written in the diary of the King of Thorns, people’s posture is what is polluted, and the form of pollutants is their true original form.

"Warden Augusch congratulates you on returning to your original form."

Li Yili raised her hand and patted it. The black liquid swirled upwards and swallowed the impending tide of flesh, converging into a straight black line.

Li Yili lowered her hands, turned around, and took a step. The black liquid that fell did not return to the temple below the mine, but instead crisscrossed on the ground and seeped into the yellow raincoat.

As Li Yili passed Rebecca, who was fast asleep, she paused, bent down, grabbed Rebecca by the back of her neck, and pulled her up. She continued forward, and soon she saw an old, lonely figure leaning on a gun and walking forward.

Li Yili unconsciously slowed her pace, maintaining a distance from Chrisdorf that was neither too far nor too close.

The direction Christopher was heading was the starting point of the Path of Theresa, a path he had taken countless times over thirty years, carrying those seeking redemption across the turbulent waters of Theresa's River.

She left this hell, only to return to it countless times.

Li Yili didn't know whether she should bother Chris Dougher.

He overheard the conversation between Chrisdorf and Auguste. Although Chrisdorf did not pick up the gun and stab Auguste as Auguste had hoped, it did not mean that Chrisdorf did not sense anything. Otherwise... Chrisdorf would not have walked in the direction of Teresa's path.

In the final moments of his life, Christophe had more to do than hate, and that last thing was most likely to be to cross the Path of Teresa.

With his current physical condition, Chris Dorf has absolutely no chance of getting through Teresa's Path.

Li Yili subconsciously looked down at her right hand, her eyes flickering.

Soon the starting point of Teresa's Path appeared before them.

Even though it was a man-made path to redemption, even though it was stained with filth along the way, its end was still so crystal clear and beautiful. Li Yili subconsciously stopped and looked at Chris Dorf's lonely figure.

That was Christopher's own path to redemption, and he shouldn't have gone near it.

But when Chris Dorf staggered and fell, Li Yili still stepped forward to help him up.

"Li Yili?"

Looking into Chrisdorf's torn, lifeless eyes, Li Yili lowered her gaze, bent down, and carried Chrisdorf's aged body on her back.

"You've managed to get this far despite your condition, you must be exhausted. I will..."

"Let me take you along this Path of Teresa."

Chapter Sixty-Three You Never Had That Obligation

The rushing water washed over Li Yili's legs. Li Yili could feel that Chris Doff's breathing, which was hanging on his shoulder, was becoming weaker and weaker. If this continued, by the time he reached the end of Teresa's Road and left this Teresa Prison, Chris Doff would most likely be dead.

For Li Yili now, the turbulence of the Teresa Road is no different from nothing; what takes Chris Dorf tens of minutes to cross, he can do in just a few seconds.

But Chris Dorf is repenting for his past.

At least for Christopher, this was not a river that had been dug out, but a path to redemption. The longing and regret made it difficult for Li Yili to resist the onslaught of the water, and the destination that was so close became incredibly far away.

“My son just wanted to help someone; I shouldn’t have let that noble wish become his mission…”

Li Yili's eyes widened slightly as images of Teresa's prison flashed through her mind, and she couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"Is this what you've been experiencing for the past thirty years?"

Li Yili let out a long breath and took a difficult step.

Listening to Chris Dorf's murmurs, he kept recalling his past in Teresa Prison.

“I’m sorry… From the very beginning, all I wanted was an answer. I even conducted a simulation in Teresa Prison to find that answer,” Li Yili said with a bitter smile as she raised her head.

"A simulation of how humanity will react to the unknown universe and what kind of results it will lead to."

“I’m not sure…no, I’m scared, I’m afraid this is an invasion.”

"I'm afraid that I actually have another memory. I'm afraid that in that memory, I'll be patting my chest and looking down on every life on this earth that is trying to live. I'm afraid that one day I'll recall that memory."

"Therefore, I have to conduct this simulation; I have to determine why I am here."

"The weak humans noticed that they were in a narrow cell, and they also noticed that there were many other races, like stars, imprisoned in the same cell. Like aliens, the races that could kill humans at will were not so far away, perhaps only separated by a wall."

"I want to live, I want to live, I just want to live."

"To disguise their appearance and take advantage of the phenomenon of being attached to this prison, so that other races dare not peek into the human cells."

"But that's not enough."

"Only by abandoning their own homes can they go further and gain the respect of other races. Only in this way can they survive... Therefore, even in the dirtiest places in the world, humans will hide in order to survive."

"But humans cannot live simply to survive; humans will always seek the meaning of life. Humans are such contradictory beings..."

"Trying to protect someone but losing control caused more casualties, brought more fear, and made it even harder to take off that uniform."

"In order to change the cruel environment more peacefully, we choose to submit to the will that determines the environment."

"This seems like the wrong option, but where exactly did it go wrong? I just... wanted to make this place more peaceful..."
